Chair 65 by Alvar Aalto for Artek
1 available
Designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek in 1935, the Chair 65 combines a circular seat with Aalto's characteristic L-shaped legs and a low rectangular backrest formed from curved birch plywood. The natural birch construction has a warm honey-toned finish, with the backrest following a gentle curve and the rear legs extending upward to form its side supports. The chair belongs to Aalto's standardised L-leg system developed for Artek.
Good vintage condition with cosmetic wear consistent with age and use. The wooden surfaces have scratches, fine marks and areas of finish wear, with more pronounced abrasions along the edges of the seats and backrests. The plywood edges show localized wear and small losses. The chairs are structurally stable.
The compact proportions and slightly lower seat height than current standardised height are shown in the scale-reference photograph, with an adult seated comfortably in the chair.
